Item 4.01 Change in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

On September 30, 2013, Immunomedics, Inc. (the “Company”) dismissed Ernst & Young LLP (“Ernst & Young”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The Company, also on September 30, 2013, engaged KPMG LLP (“KPMG”) as the Company’s new independent registered public accounting firm. The decision to dismiss Ernst & Young and engage KPMG was made at the direction of the audit committee of the Company’s board of directors.

The reports of Ernst & Young on the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012 and 2013 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

During the Company’s fiscal years ended June 30, 2012 and 2013 and through September 30, 2013, the Company did not have any disagreement with Ernst & Young on any matter of accounting principle or practice, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Ernst & Young, would have caused it to make reference to the matter in connection with its report on the Company’s financial statements for the relevant year.

During the Company’s fiscal years ended June 30, 2012 and 2013 and through September 30, 2013, no “reportable events” as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K have occurred.

A copy of Ernst & Young’s letter to the Securities and Exchange Commission dated October 4, 2013 stating whether it agrees with the foregoing statements is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Form 8-K.

During the Company’s fiscal years ended June 30, 2012 and 2013 and through September 30, 2013, neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf consulted with KPMG regarding any of the matters specified in Item 304(a)(2) of Regulation S-K.
